Edinburgh

1 day per month

TreasurerAre you passionate about a fairer, more inclusive society?

Could you use your financial expertise to help an innovative, compassionate charity tackle homelessness and its causes?

Cyrenians is seeking a volunteer Treasurer to join our Board of trustees and help guide the financial stewardship of our work to prevent and respond to homelessness.

This is a rewarding opportunity for someone with strong finance or accounting experience who wants to use their expertise for social good. You will play a central role in helping the Board understand Cyrenians’ financial position, make informed decisions and ensure our resources are used responsibly to support people facing tough realities across our communities.

As Treasurer, you will bring financial insight, constructive challenge and clear advice to Board discussions. Working alongside fellow trustees, the Chief Executive and Director of Finance & Corporate Services, you will help oversee budgets, accounts, controls, risk, sustainability and statutory reporting.

You do not need to have been a charity trustee before. What matters is that you can think strategically, communicate financial information clearly, work collaboratively and bring sound judgement.

We are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion and are actively seeking to broaden the diversity of our Board. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and are particularly keen to hear from women, people from minority ethnic backgrounds, including minority ethnic women, and disabled people, who are currently underrepresented on our Board. We believe that a diverse Board is better equipped to understand and respond to the needs of our communities, and we value the different perspectives and experiences that individuals bring.

Please see the Trustee Recruitment Pack for full details about the role, time commitment and application process.

Applications close at 12 noon on Monday 5 October.
